Any fellow Herbalifers out there???

Hey! I just went to a Herbalife party tonight, and I am going to start the advanced program! I am so excited about it!!! It's great to see someone that is doing it with MFP, because I was wondering how easy it would be to track.

I've been using Herbalife since the end of July. It made all the difference for me. Now my husband and daughter use it too!

Yep. A friend suggested that I try it and the products have been working so far. I'm happy with the results and will continue using them, along with exercising. I have a long way to go, but I'm off to a pretty good start.

What's herbalife ? And how does it work? Does it help you lose more weight or is it just like a protein shake or meal replacement lol? Now I'm curious with everyone's hype lol

I started on it this morning. I had the Cafe Latte shake. I plan to have 2 shakes a day while I am trying to lose weight and tone up. I am eating extra protein in between (hard boiled eggs, greek yogurt, etc.) then having a sensible meal. I am trying to get my water in too! Excited to see a difference.

my hubby got me started august last year. We've been off and on, but since July I've been getting back into it more. I love the shakes and the 2 nutrition clubs by us. My hubby is a distributor, so we have shake stuff here at home, too. My kids love the shakes, too.

I am hoping to one day make it to one of the weight loss challenges. I haven't been able to yet b/c of not having anyone to watch my 3 boys.

anyone can friend me if they'd like. I'd love to have someone who into herbalife around.

shakes are around 200-240 cals/piece. majority of people working w/ herbalife have 2 shakes a day +1 correctly portioned out meal. I, myself, am only doing a breakfast shake within my 1200 cals plan.
A person's calorie goal depends on certain guidelines, it's not a one size fits all calculation. (you probably already know this, but I was just putting it out there).

If you guys want to blow your cash on some network marketing scam that's your choice, but I don't think you should be peddling your snake oil here.

I'm not going to badmouth Herbalife at all. I've known several people who have lost weight and feel happy on it. My question is, do people keep the weight off on Herbalife? My best friend is on it. She and I are losing weight together. I'm doing restricted calories and running. She's doing Herbalife and running. I'm losing weight at the same rate (if not a little more) than her. I asked her the other day what happens when she hits her target weight? Does she still have to drink the shakes and stuff? I mean, it doesn't really seem like it teaches you to eat correctly if you're substituting up to 2 meals a day with a shake.

Hello! I just started the program on Wednesday (11/7/2012). I understand that there are people out there that do not agree with these types of programs but it works for me and I have a few friends that have lost anywhere from 50-over 100lbs on this program. The shakes are good for you and I don't feel its a waste of money . It is approx. $4.40 a meal and then I just eat a very colorful salad for my sensible meal. So I may spend a little over $10.00 a day for everything I eat. Everyone is intitaled to there opinion but I really think this site is for motivation and not negative comments. Every body is different and everyone needs to do what works for you. And for me there is a herbalife shake place at the end of my street. They are always packed and they always do free classes from Zumba, Cross Fit, skin care, shake recipes, etc. This is very motivating for me.
I hope that you all reach your health and fitness goals and live a long healthy life.
Good Luck

True, we're here to motivate - not rip off.

As for you, you could save yourself $3/day and buy any other meal replacement shake out there. And with the money saved you could then join a gym. More often than not gym membership includes free classes such as Zumba etc. where they are not trying to sell you anything.

I have been doing the 2 shakes a day and one regular, reasonable meal for 5 weeks now. I lost 10 lbs in the first week!! I have been loosing inches since day one! Still only lost 10 lbs, but have lost over 15 inches!! I take the Multi-Vitamin (formula 2) and the Cell Activator (formula 3) as well as Cell-U-Lose. I know its pricy but I'm desperate to finally find something that works and if at the end of 6 months I have spent $1,000 to finally get down to my ideal weight, that I have been struggling with and unhappy with for 10 years, IT IS WORTH IT! Plus I don't have to spend much in groceries, so it almost balances out.

I also keep Thermo Bond and Snack Defense Handy, LIFE SAVERS!!

It's not snake oil. It's not a scam. The shakes are delicious. BUT. It's just a protein powder. I'm not trying to lose weight but I do enjoy the shakes from my local herbalife based shop in my apartment complex (we have a strip mall.) I did buy some stuff for my own shakes and it is a bit more expensive than just buying one container of protein powder. the herbalife shakes mix one scoop protein powder and one scoop "healthy meal" which is just like a powdered multivitamin.

Yes, you lose weight on it because the shakes serve as meal replacements. After you reach your goal weight you cut back to 1 shake to replace 1 meal instead of 2 shakes replacing 2 meals. And you have to keep exercising.

It's overpriced.

My former sister-in-law used it. She lost a lot of weight. Then she gained it all back plus about 30 extra pounds. She could have gained 30 pounds in the first place for free.

Anyway, good luck.
